Appart'City Collection Paris Gare de Lyon

I stayed here for the last 4 nights of my 22-night trip around Europe. The location is about 1km walk from Gare de Lyon. It was a tough distance to walk while rolling a suitcase. However, RER1 (and 4) stops at Gare de Lyon, so it is a direct line to Disneyland Paris. You can also transfer to RER2 at Shattret station, one stop away, to Charles de Gaulle Airport and Gare de Nord, where trains arrive from Europe north of Paris. The 1st and 2nd platforms are opposite each other, so it was very easy to transfer. There is a supermarket next door (Lidi), but the selection is not that good, and the opening hours are short, from 9am to 8:30pm, so I often used Monoprix (open until 11pm) near Place de la Bastille, one stop away. The facilities are clean, but there are no knives in the room (even though there is a cutting board!) so it was a great idea to bring one with me. The stove and the pots provided were convenient for cooking. There was only a shower, no bathtub. But even though it was an apartment hotel, cleaning was done every day. I was grateful for that. The receptionists were all black, but they were very friendly and polite. They kindly lent me a scale to check the weight of my suitcase before my return flight, and came to my room to help me when I couldn't unlock the stove. There seems to be a breakfast venue, but I didn't use it. But they bake bread from 4am, and it looked delicious. I think it's also a big plus that you can get as much water as you want from the water purifier in the lobby. I had a fun stay.

Clean, spacious, with kitchen and kitchenware, a supermarket next to it, and electric railings in the toilet for drying clothes, which is good. There are subway stations and train stations nearby, and many restaurants, so it is convenient to travel. You can walk around the nearby sky garden in the morning, recommended.

This is an apartment-style hotel that has just opened. It is large in size and has all the basic kitchenware. There is a convenience store downstairs so you can buy your own groceries and cook. The breakfast is average but filling. Across the street is a well-known Chongqing hotpot restaurant. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to both subway stations. Overall, it is a very cost-effective hotel in Paris.
